Our Owner
Mrs.
Arden Hubbard has had 35 years of experience in the
field of education. Being a classroom teacher, a
music teacher, mother, and grandmother has kept her
close to children at all
times. Her love for children extends throughout the
staff providing warmth, security, and pride to
every child in our school.
Our Philosophy:
At
Olde Riverside School and Camp, we feel that one
preschooler is many persons. He/she is one physical
body, one social entity, one emotional being, one
creative spirit, and one growing individual. We
provide a safe, secure, and loving atmosphere in
which your child can experiment, explore, and create.
Under the guidance of experienced New Jersey
certified teachers and small class settings, we hope
to help your child build a good foundation for life.
Our aim is to develop a well-rounded individual by
helping him/her
grow physically, socially,
emotionally and educationally.
Our
School Program
Our early childhood program is flexible and provides
for many varied educational experiences. We have
developmentally appropriate activities that are
selected to achieve the following goals:
• Foster positive
self-concept
• Develop social skills
•
Encourage children to think, reason, question, and
experiment
• Encourage
language development
• Enhance physical development and skills
• Encourage/demonstrate sound health safety, and
nutrition practices
• Encourage creative expression and appreciation for
the arts
• Respect cultural diversity
Our program is enhanced by visits from community
resource persons throughout the year. Walking trips
throughout the community and bus trips are also part
of the curriculum.
Daily
Activities
We have as many “doing activities” as possible for
we feel that this is the way a child learns best.
A typical day includes many of the following:
• Block Building
• Sand and Water Play
• Creative Dramatics
• Stories and Fingerplays
• Cooking
• Music and Rhythms
• Science and Math Concepts
• Health
• Social Science
• Reading and Writing Readiness
Play is also a very
important part of our day.
During each session, the children are provided a
light nutritious snack and drink.
